e4 Managed Switchvox Support Policy

.e4 Support for Switchvox is simple, predictable, and the most comprehensive support policy available.

.e4's annual Switchvox Support helps drive your business success. .e4's industry-leading phone and email support covers your PBX, phones, and networking gear. It puts you in control of your upgrade strategy so you can enjoy continued peace of mind, knowing that no matter which Switchvox release you're running, .e4 will be there to support your business.

All Switchvox Systems provided by .e4 Technologies include one (1) Year of phone, email, and live chat support. Additional Support can be purchased at the time of system acquisition or at any time during the product life cycle. .e4 Support is provided in addition to the Direct from Digium support Subscriptions.

.e4’s Value Add:

Upon acquisition of your Switchvox PBX you will be contacted by your dedicated account representative. An assigned account representative acts as the inside coordinator for your subscriptions, interfacing your team with the .e4 technical support and engineering group. With one person who knows your system (or cluster, or worldwide network) you get faster, better service.

Your assigned account representative will schedule a roster meeting where .e4’s engineering and support team will discuss your company’s unique requirement. It is at this point that .e4 will work to document your setup and outline the project time line and installation date.

All equipment is pre-configure then delivered on at a predetermined date. A cut over conference will be conducted upon delivery at which time .e4 will work with the customer to deploy their Switchvox solution.

IP Phone Provisioning- Configuration Files are generated then provided to the customer for on site hosting. As an option .e4 will host configuration files on our secure provisioning server at no additional cost for the term of our support obligation. If additional phones are purchased .e4 will pre-provision the device.

Admin Training- .e4 Provides a 3 Hour Walk through of the administrative features of Switchvox. This training is scheduled in advance and is designed to deliver a better understanding of Switchvox best practices while teaching admins to perform basic features.

Remote Technical Assistance on demand- .e4 will provide assistance and answer questions related to installation, configuration, and basic troubleshooting of your Switchvox PBX. Technical Assistance on demand does not include Engineering Support. Engineering Support will be performed at a per determined time.Remote technical assistance is provided from 9am until 7pm in the U.S. Easter Time Zone, Monday through Friday, except for National Holidays.

Upgrades and Updates- Updates and/or enhancements to Switchvox IP PBX Software are provided to customers under current direct from Digium software maintenance.

Advanced hardware Replacement– Should .e4’s Support Team determine that your any of your Switchvox PBX hardware is faulty, .e4 will provide our customers with advanced hardware replacement.

Digium's added layer:

All Switchvox Systems are backed by Digium's Annual support subscription.

Switchvox Subscriptions include 2 things:

Technical Support- Subscriptions are available in 3 levels that dictate the level of technical support service you will have access to- Silver, Gold, and Platinum.

User Extension License Subscriptions at all levels (Silver, Gold, & Platinum) also make it possible for you to add extensions to your Switchvox. Therefore you will need a Subscription at the level of your choice for each user or extension on the system.

bug fixes
